Kitchen Range Hoods

Overview

Your range hood should be able to remove excess heat, steam, odors, and smoke from your cooking area. If you're current hood is unable to perform, then it might be time to consider an upgrade. When choosing a range hood you'll need to determine the type that is best suited for your space.

• Island mounted install directly above your counter or stovetop and are intended for island or peninsula setups.

• Under cabinet hoods  are installed under your kitchen cabinets directly above the cooktop. These are typically the most common type of range hood.

• Wall mounted are installed against the wall and vent up towards the ceiling. They can create a bold modern look and work best when there are no cabinets overhead.

• Downdraft hoods are a great option for small kitchens or exceptionally high ceilings. They can be less effective than other offerings, but what they might lack in performance they make up for in space saving and size.

• Professional & commercial hoods are high performance range hoods that are great for restaurants or homes with restaurant-capable kitchens.

Lastly, any range hood you consider should be at least as wide as the cooking surface it will be installed above (downsizing isn't recommended).
